Comm. 306.1: From Planning Director Chris Yuen, dated June 4, 2007, clarifying his previous statement
regarding affordable housing conditions on time extensions for zoning applications. States
the department has applied the condition to all applicable time extensions since Chapter 11,
Housing Code, was amended in February 2005. However, the only situation previous to this
was Waikoloa Mauka, which had an affordable housing condition applied to the initial
zoning application, but they did not have to provide it on their one-acre lots, because it was
not required by Chapter 11 at the time. The initial zoning application for the subject
property did not have the condition applied as their requested lot size of three acres also was
not required to receive the condition. The condition was applied to both developers' time
extensions pursuant to the 2005 amendment.
